A SOLID THRILLER...
This is an updated version of one of the author's earlier novels. First published in the nineteen seventies, the book caused some of controversy in its time, because the premise of the book revolved around an assasination plot against a newly sworn in President Edward Kennedy. In this updated version, the newly sworn in president is a woman, Florentyna Kane.When FBI Agent Mark Andrews finds himself to be the last man standing, he suddenly is made the point man for a very real plot to assassinate the president in less than a week's time. The problem is that the trail leads to Capitol Hill. Can Agent Brown discover who the mastermind is in time to thwart the plot?The author weaves a suspenseful, interesting story that will hold the attention of the reader. There are enough twists and turns to keep the reader engaged. Those who like cloak and dagger thrillers will most definitely enjoy this book.

EXCITING SAVVY THRILLER.
Disagree with the President's agenda, but notwithstanding, an enthralling unpredictable suspense, with protagonist FBI Special Agent Mark Andrews, who seeks justice for fallen compatriots. Captivating dialogue amongst the various characters -- the innocent facade of greed.

What would be important for an incoming president to know?
I have been reading Jeffrey Archers books for awhile. I loved the Cliff ton Chronacles. Then I found. Some of his other books. This story about a young FBI agent who learns about a. plot to kill the president moved quickly and keep me reading long after bedtime!

Well--should we tell?
Well written and the question is a surprise at the end of the book. The answer--probably not--everything had been taken care of. The mystery was carried through the book

disappointing as book three of Kane and Abel
I read books 1 and 2 of Archer’s Kane and Abel over the last few days and expected to follow characters from the first two books to be at the center of the third book in the series. They are not. And, the prose is distinctly different. I was disappointed.

Thrilling
Jeffrey Archer is at his best when he is recapturing history through his dynamic characters. It is interesting to get a glimpse of our democratic government in action. His storytelling is exemplary and should he choose to continue the legacy of the Kane family, I’m sure it will be another hit.

Bof... Pas terrible. Trop long. Complètement prévisible et annoncé. Histoire pas du tout indispensable avec des personnages vides et insipides. Temps perdu.
